Why We Love this Villa Hand picked by our Villa expert Lily Palupi

Staying at Gangananda in Ambalangoda felt like stepping into a quieter, slower part of Sri Lanka. The village around the villa has a real traditional charm, and the house itself feels welcoming and easy to live in.

One of the best parts was having a boat and a canoe ready to use. Paddling on the lake was such a peaceful way to spend the morning, and it made the whole stay feel connected to the calm, natural surroundings.

stayed at Gangananda with a group of friends from 13th January 2024 to 27th January 2024

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour à la villa Gangananda. La villa est super bien située au calme avec un vue incroyable, à 10mn d'une superbe plage accessible à pieds. Villa spacieuse , très confortable, superbe piscine (entrée dans la piscine en sol glissant). Sampath notre concierge, nous à très bien accueilli et a toujours été au petit soin pour nous tout au long du séjour (conseils, réservations, tuk-tuk, van et autres services ...). Le personnel était discret toujours à notre service; les repas très bons, variés et copieux. Bref ! UN FORMIDABLE SEJOUR ! (Translated from French)

stayed at Gangananda with a group of friends and their families from 08th January 2024 to 13th January 2024

we enjoyed a fantastic week at this beautiful villa, looked after with discreet and professional care from the team on site. the stylish rooms are clean, comfortable and well-equipped, the indoor and outdoor sitting areas were a pleasure. The pool is just right and the garden with its views, relaxing and fascinating. The neighbourhood is not at all touristy, there are many fine walks, the beach is close and the amenities of the town also. The breakfast and dinners were wonderful and there are nearby restaurants to explore.

stayed at Gangananda with a group of friends and their families from 05th February 2020 to 10th February 2020

We stayed for 5 nights at Villa Gangananda, a very comfortable villa situated at a beautiful spot on the (large) Madampe lake. We particularly enjoyed taking the villa's stand-up paddle and canoes out in the early mornings and evenings when you can see lots of wildlife (such as the monitor lizard, sea eagle), and the lake is often flat like a mirror. One great thing about the villa's swimming pool is that it is shaded in the afternoon, so it is perfect for watching sunsets while taking a cool drink (you can order from the house's menu and the staff will them fresh). In the evening we had dinner at the villa, made by the resident cook, which was very nice, not to mention very convenient. There are three staff members who live on the property in a separate house, and they were most helpful and discrete. The villa manager Sampath comes around every morning to check if things are OK and offered great help with our excursions. The villa is a short ride away from some of the most beautiful beaches in the south. We also booked a boat tour on the lake (the boat belongs to the villa) one morning, which was great. I had two massages by a very professional masseur who came to the villa, and I can definitely recommend him. All in all Gangananda is a fantastic place to unwind and enjoy beautiful nature while being pampered. We loved it.
